While dowsing a well, Hiram and his son Michael hear a cry of help from the ghost of a small boy. Suddenly a prosperous rancher is murdered right before them. In an attempt to help the ghost and find the killer, Hiram and Michael navigate an eccentric cast of characters: failed bank robbers, an inept sheriff, a crazy prospector, and a preacher with an apocalyptic grudge. While the murderer is slowly moving against them, there is an astrological puzzle that must be solved before they are trapped beyond escape.
